The '''General Radio 1652-A Resistance Limit Bridge''' was introduced in 1951 Catalog M and remained available through Catalog T 1968.
The '''General Radio 1652-A Resistance Limit Bridge''' was introduced in 1951 Catalog M and remained available through Catalog T 1968.


Using the Weatstone bridge the Type 1652-A will compare the unknown to an external or internal standard and display difference as a percentage.  It's internal standard is made up of seven Type [[510]] Decade Resistance units connected in series.
Based on a [[wikipedia:Wheatstone bridge|Wheatstone bridge]] circuit, the Type 1652-A will compare the unknown to an external or internal standard and display difference as a percentage.   
Its internal standard is made up of seven [[510|Type 510 Decade Resistance]] units connected in series.
